Trail: Appapachian Trail, Bulls Bridge South

Date Hiked: 03/09/07

Conditions: 0-3" ice, covered with 0 to 1/2" snow: areas exposed to the south can be muddy in the afternoon

Special Required Equipment: Crampons are essential to go up or down any significant slope Hiking poles are also required to maintain balance

Comments: The snow over the ice can lead you into a false sense of good footing until you start to climb. I slipped and slid about 15 feet trying to climb Ten Mile Hill. I had some trouble getting back doun the slope due to ice.
